    Many a person was touched by Dave's free and loving spirit. He unselfishly served his community as a volunteer firefighter, a special breed of individuals who put the needs of others before their own. Dave worked hard and played hard and would often relate to me his love/pride for his family. Rest assure Jen, there are big waves and beautiful sunrises in heaven. Dave is searching for that perfect beach right now, patiently waiting until you're together again!

    R.I.P. Dave, you will always be in my heart. So glad I got you to Saint Mary's GA, because you wanted to go back there and show Dylan and I the town you loved so much. Dylan loves and misses you so much as do I. You were an excellent father to him and we are so grateful for that. I know you are back in Saint Mary's now and amongst us all right now. You will be deeply missed. I love you! xoxoxo Thoughts and prayers for everyone that Dave has touched and that was many, very many. God Bless

    You were the love of my life. Ive never met a man so caring to everyone. You were one of a kind. We only had a short time together but we adored each other so very much. Our love for each other was clear to everyone and I am so glad I made you extremely happy.
